After Liu Jianping hung up the phone, he began to revise the draft of "Very Pure and Ambiguous". Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. ｂiquge。 ｉｎfo

After more than an hour, Liu Jianping received a call from the boss of Xinchang Publishing House.

"Young Master Liu, are you busy?" Boss Lan said with a smile.

"I'm writing a novel!" Liu Jianping said with a smile, "Boss Lan, do you have any advice?" ”

"I don't dare to give advice, I will have to rely on Liu Gongzi to eat in the future." Boss Lan smiled, "I won't talk much about it, I'll get straight to the point, last time, you offered a few book packaging prices, and I accepted it." ”

"100 words for "Shenglong Road", 50 words for "Super Player of Online Games", 50 words for "Legend of Rebirth", and 30 words for "Starting from Zero...... Hehe, that's the price, right? ”

"Yes. "Super Player of Online Games" and "Legend of Rebirth" have been completed, after signing the contract, the manuscript fee can be given to you immediately, "Starting from Zero" has been updated with more than one million words, I don't know how many copies can be published, I will give you ten volumes first, 700,000 words of manuscript fee. "Shenglong Road" also gave a manuscript fee for ten volumes. ”

"Okay. You draw up the contract over there, and I'll send it over as soon as possible. By the way, in a few days, I have a new book to upload, and I feel that this book will definitely be popular, and I hope that it will become the hottest online novel of 2004. On the day the new book is uploaded, I will send you a manuscript of 60,000 or 70,000 words to your mailbox, if you think it is good, you can publish a volume to test the water, and if the sales are good, let's talk about copyright tax. ”

Boss Lan was stunned for a moment when he heard this, and said with a smile: "Listen to your tone, are you going to sell it for a sky-high price?" ”

"After-tax remuneration, 150 yuan per thousand words, this is a must."

"I look forward to seeing your masterpiece soon. By the way, before, you recommended to me "The Beauty of the Rivers and Mountains", I think you can try the water, 40 yuan for 1,000 words, how about it? ”

"Boss Lan, you're a big boss, add ten more yuan, so that I can talk to the author about it."

"Okay, okay, fifty is fifty, if a few books are published this time, I can't make money, you can make up for me next time."

"Well said. The word count of "The Beauty of the Mountains" that has been updated on the Internet can be published in ten volumes, can it be published in ten volumes? ”

"Yes, you ask the author to sort out ten volumes of manuscripts, one document at a time, send them over, and after reading them, there is no problem, and you can pay the manuscript fee."

"Thank you, Boss Lan."

"You're welcome."

The two chatted for a while, and Boss Lan said, "There's nothing else, let's talk about it here first, and the contract will definitely be sent to your mailbox this afternoon." ”

After hanging up the phone, Liu Jianping was about to call Regan's contact number, when he heard a knock on the door and a shout from Zhu Fengnian.

"Jianping, you come out and tell you good news."

Liu Jianping stood up, walked to the door, opened the door, and saw Zhu Fengnian with a smile on his face.

"What's the good news?" Liu Jianping asked with a smile.

"Jiangcheng Publishing House interrupted the purchase of the physical book rights of the two books "Legend of Rebirth" and "Do You Care About My Football".

"Good news!" Liu Jianping said happily, "What price?" ”

"Both books are 40 yuan for 1,000 words, and the pre-tax manuscript fee, hehe, isn't it a bit low?"

"It's not low, being able to publish a physical book in the mainland can greatly enhance the author's reputation."

Liu Jianping smiled and continued: "I also have good news for you, Boss Lan bought the copyright of six books at a time. ”

"Which six books?" Zhu Fengnian asked happily and curiously.

""Shenglong Road", "Super Player of the Tour", "Legend of Rebirth", "Starting from Scratch", and Regan's "The Legend of the Beauty."

"What's the price?"

"100 words for "Shenglong Road", 50 words for "Super Player of Online Games", 50 words for "Legend of Rebirth", 30 words for "Starting from Zero", and 50 words for "Chronicles of the Beauty" of the Mountains."

"It's not cheap. If there is less piracy in the mainland, it is estimated that more people can make a living by writing novels. ”

"Don't sigh." Liu Jian smiled lightly, "Is there anything else?" ”

"No more. Regan, and Lin Hai Tingtao, you can contact them. ”

"Okay, I was going to call Regan just now."

"Then you call, I'm going to get busy."

Before Zhu Fengnian turned around and left, Liu Jianping asked, "By the way, how did Jiangcheng Publishing House find you to talk about buying the copyright of the novel?" ”

"I have a classmate's father who works in Jiangcheng Publishing House, as a leader in the logistics department, he knows the editor of Jiangcheng Publishing House, a while ago, I recommended a good book network to this classmate, knowing that he knows the editor of the publishing house, I said casually, let him help recommend the publication of novels to the publishing house, if it is successful, I will invite him to dinner. He likes to play football very much, and when he was in college, he was the main striker of the college football team. Of course, the "Legend of Rebirth" you wrote, he also liked it. ”

"It's being serialized, and he can't read any of the novels that haven't been finished yet?"

"It's not that I can't look down on it, he said, for the time being, publish two books to test the water, if the results are good, Jiangcheng Publishing House will cooperate with Haoshu.com in depth."

"You make an appointment with your classmate and invite him to a big hotel for a good meal."

"Just find a restaurant, it doesn't have to be too good, I have a good relationship with him."

"You have an idea." Liu Jianping raised the mobile phone in his hand, "I'll go back to the house to call." ”

Liu Jianping closed the door, sat on the bed, and dialed Regan's phone.

"Hello, Regan is big." Liu Jianping said with a smile.

"Young Master Liu, what do you command?" Regan smiled.

"Regan, that's the case, just now the boss of Xinchang Publishing House called me and said that he could publish "The Beauty of the Mountains", at the beginning of the price of 40 yuan for 1,000 words, I asked him to add 10 yuan, he agreed, hehe, 50 yuan for 1,000 words, the price after tax, you and Haoshu.com half of the split, you can get 25 yuan per thousand words."

"Thank you so much Liu Gongzi, I didn't expect that the novel I wrote could also be published in T Bay." Regan smiled happily.

"Don't you think it's a loss to let the website share half of the manuscript fee?"

"I don't feel at a loss, before signing a contract with the Good Book Network, the number of words updated by "Jiangshan Beauty" is also a lot, and I haven't seen any publishing house ask me to talk about signing a contract, if there is no recommendation from you, Xinchang Publishing House may not be able to see the novel "Jiangshan Beauty". Even if someone helps to recommend the publication to the publisher, the intermediary will also take the intermediary fee, hehe, I am quite satisfied that the book can get 25 yuan per 1,000 words. ”

"It's good to be satisfied. I discussed with Boss Lan, as long as you give the manuscript fee for ten manuscripts, after the publishing house has read it, there is no problem, and you can get the manuscript fee for ten manuscripts soon. Each volume is 60,000 or 70,000 words, one document per volume, you get it as soon as possible, revise it when it should be modified, and if the sales volume of the first ten volumes is okay, the publishing house will continue to publish it. ”

"When will you get the draft?"

"It's best to get it done within a week, it doesn't matter if it's late, and in the next few days, "The Beauty of the Mountains" will be updated steadily."

"I know, I still have some manuscripts in reserve, which can ensure stable updates."

"That's fine." Liu Jianping paused and continued, "After hanging up the phone, you sent me a text message on your mobile phone, and sent a letter to my mailbox, indicating that you agree to sell the copyright of the novel to Xinchang Publishing House for publication at a price of 50 yuan per thousand words, and you and Haoshu.com will share the manuscript fee equally...... As for the contract with the publishing house, I will sign it first, and then I will sign the contract with you later. ”

"What kind of contract do you want to sign again, half of the copyright that was signed and sold before is in black and white, so there is no need to be so troublesome."

"The matter of signing the contract can be delayed, but you have to send text messages and emails, I don't want there to be problems in communication between us and unpleasant things in the future."

"Okay, I'll text you right away, and I'll send you the email later."
